See mlt/src/modules/producer_avformat.c

Frames in MLT do not have timestamps per se unless you consider the
frame ordinal (0, 1, 2, ...) and even then, it does not reorder. The
architecture is more like a constant framerate frame server. The
producer is expected to produce frames for each request (by its
consumer) at a constant frame.

You have to look at ffmpeg.c rather than any of its libs. It is quite hairy!
